An Android library to render your application screens without a physical device or emulator.

class LaunchViewTest {
  @get:Rule
  val paparazzi = Paparazzi(
    deviceConfig = PIXEL_5,
    theme = "android:Theme.Material.Light.NoActionBar"
    // ...see docs for more options
  )

  @Test
  fun launchView() {
    val view = paparazzi.inflate<LaunchView>(R.layout.launch)
    // or...
    // val view = LaunchView(paparazzi.context)

    view.setModel(LaunchModel(title = "paparazzi"))
    paparazzi.snapshot(view)
  }

  @Test
  fun launchComposable() {
    paparazzi.snapshot {
      MyComposable()
    }
  }
}

See the project website for documentation and APIs.

$ ./gradlew sample:testDebug

Runs tests and generates an HTML report at sample/build/reports/paparazzi/ showing all test runs and snapshots.

$ ./gradlew sample:recordPaparazziDebug

Saves snapshots as golden values to a predefined source-controlled location (defaults to src/test/snapshots).

$ ./gradlew sample:verifyPaparazziDebug

Runs tests and verifies against previously-recorded golden values. Failures generate diffs at sample/out/failures.

For more examples, check out the sample project.

It is recommended you use Git LFS to store your snapshots. Here's a quick setup:

$ brew install git-lfs
$ git config core.hooksPath  # optional, confirm where your git hooks will be installed
$ git lfs install --local
$ git lfs track "**/snapshots/**/*.png"
$ git add .gitattributes

On CI, you might set up something like:

$HOOKS_DIR/pre-receive

# compares files that match .gitattributes filter to those actually tracked by git-lfs
diff <(git ls-files ':(attr:filter=lfs)' | sort) <(git lfs ls-files -n | sort) >/dev/null

ret=$?
if [[ $ret -ne 0 ]]; then
  echo >&2 "This remote has detected files committed without using Git LFS. Run 'brew install git-lfs && git lfs install' to install it and re-commit your files.";
  exit 1;
fi

your_build_script.sh

if [[ is running snapshot tests ]]; then
  # fail fast if files not checked in using git lfs
  "$HOOKS_DIR"/pre-receive
  git lfs install --local
  git lfs pull
fi

If using Jetifier to migrate off Support libraries, add the following to your gradle.properties to exclude bundled Android dependencies.

android.jetifier.ignorelist=android-base-common,common
